Susanna Lo, director, screenwriter and author, has launched an Indiegogo campaign to raise the final funds needed to finish the biopic Manson Girls movie.Here is a direct quote from the site:

“We need to raise an additional $150,000, ideally more, so we can start the next phase of shooting on Manson Girls. With close to 100 cast members and a story that takes place in 1969, the whole Manson Girls team is dedicated to bringing an authentic representation of the time and place of this real period in American history. Our incredible THANK YOU GIFTS include autographed photos of the cast (these pics go for double on Ebay), cd copies of Manson Girls soundtrack with members of The Doobies, The Beach Boys, The Bangles, David Crosby, Beth Hart and the cast participating, and opportunities to come on set and have lunch with the cast. So help us complete this journey and we’ll thank you by bringing you into our family.”

The "Manson Girls" movie steams forward, albeit with a few pauses to accommodate the schedules of the various talent involved.The production company, in association with Robo Records, has created a song writing contest - entries to be reviewed by John McFee and myself as well as Robo Records director, Rob Christie and Manson Girls director, Susanna Lo. First prize is, and I quote, "Your original song will be recorded and produced by living legend music veterans Guy Allison and John McFee of The Doobie Brothers and put on the Manson Girls soundtrack, recorded on Robo Records a subsidiary of UNIVERSAL MUSIC GROUP.""Living legends music veterans" huh... I'm sure they're referring to Mr. McFee there!Nonetheless, this sounds like my kinda fun. Please check the web link for all the pertinent info.
